Did you know the Bible never calls the 70^th Week of Daniel “The Tribulation”?  All Christians are to be patient in tribulation. It will intensify during the 70th Week and “the great tribulation” starts at the mid-point, the “abomination of desolation”. After that great tribulation comes the great signs in the sun, moon and stars and Jesus send his angels to gather his elect. He tells his followers endure tribulation and watch for his coming to rescue them. He will reward his saints based on their faithfulness.
